Well this warm winter the insect population will heavy. With that in mind I thought I would post this recipe for homemade Permethrin Spray for your gear and clothes ONLY! This is not to be used on your skin or dogs. This is the same product as the Sawyer Product but much cheaper. I turkey hunt ALOT and can say this formula works great. I have had one tick on me in 3 years

I was in ther service about 6 years ago and before I left the supply sergeant gave me a case of permethrin that we used on our DCU's in Iraq for sand fleas and other insects. He told me to spray it on my turkey clothes to keep the ticks off so I did. Now every year about this time I get out a can and treat my cammo again. I have not had a tick on me from hunting in quite some time. I think this stuff works great.
